The CTAN team are working to improve searching and browsing of CTAN.
The first visible steps will include a large number of directory
moves. Over the next few days, the directories
macros/latex/contrib/(other|supported)
are going to disappear, and their contents will move to
macros/latex/contrib
We believe this will increase clarity, since there has in practice
been no discernible difference between the two sub-trees apart from
content.
The moves have already started; contrib/other/misc and
contrib/supported/misc have been merged and moved to contrib/misc.
Whenever new packages are submitted from now on, they will go direct
into subdirectories of contrib/ (two such have appeared so far).
